Hi is it posible to change the depth of the harbor(s). I went into a harbor, see a nice modern tanker:cool: , so i did not realy think about depth...:know: (Do that from now on) then crach bang, first into my mind was mines.. But no has hit the bottom, there was less than 7 meters..:oops: So (if it is Posible to change) please with sugar on, ;) can somebody tell me where I can change the depth. (So I can enjoy some harbor raiding).:arrgh!: I realise that there is and should be different harbors with different depth but I just think if a modern tanker can be in there then I should too. But maybe I should just enjoy the depth of the open seas.:hmm:

There is no way AFAIK of changing the depth. We have to use the SH3 world as scripted into the game code,
Mind you, some harbours are pretty deep (Curacao springs to mind) :hmm:

Thanks for the fast reply:up: I was afraid of that:cry: Bye the way it was Plymouth. I will Check out the depth next time I get the harbor raiding feeling:arrgh!: , maybe I just took the wrong path in:hmm: . And/Or I will try to tell Sh3gen not to give me a impossible mission. I realy do not like to be in the wrong end of a firing squad;)

You can alter the depth with the terrain editor
Read this and have a go :up:

The sand is not "solid", we can go through and see still the sea ... Is it possible to change that with solid elements, and why not also rock in 3D ?

Great :up: I will try it out. Maybe even try to google if there is some info about the different harbors:know: . But at least where the big ships are there should be some room under the keel for them. ( And Me..:arrgh!: )

Alot of shallow harbors have channels dredged into them in Real Life.
I doubt the game files reflect this 100%
But, if you are going through the trouble to use terrain editor to fix your install.
Add channels then upload the files so the rest of us can enjoy your work.

Oh, and now that you plan on being a Modder?

SUCKER!!!!
